    It was such a special night, we share our Anniversary (March 3rd) with a couple friend of ours and go out to dinner every year to celebrate. This year we decided to go to Verandah as our friends had never been - new experience for them. It was so fabulous... the food, the service, the ambiance... that I felt guilty that I had never shared this diamond with them. The gents had the almond-crusted triple tail special and the ladies had the Prime Rib Oscar special--- both dishes were delicious! Needless to say, we will be back... with more friends!

    Food was tremendous and we enjoyed a great meal. Noise level was higher than I remember from last year, but not sure the word decorum means much any more in a public place. The separation of dining areas is a bonus and the floor/wall coverings help to try and keep the noise down. Diners just need to understand a nice restaurant in a beautiful setting doesn’t mean you have to scream your conversation like you would at McD’s. We will be back!

    We always enjoy our dinners at The Veranda. It’s a very special place. We enjoy the “Old World “ atmosphere. A wonderful change from the usual sports bar vibe.

    Excellent ambiance-service-food. Entering the building you were greeted with a person playing the piano in the bar area. Even though we were seated inside, dinner on the outside patio in a garden like setting will be our Choice next time.
